The 3 day parish mission is called, “God’s Healing Mercy during Advent” featuring talks by Fr. Chris Krymski, National Director of St. Peregrine Ministries in Chicago. Fr. Chris will talk on God’s healing mercy in conjunction to Saint Peregrine the healing Saint for those with cancer and serious illness. Fr.

*Saint Peregrine is the patron of sick people, cancer patients, and AIDS patients. He was initially a fiery anti-Catholic until he struck Saint Philip Benizi who offered him the other cheek in return. Saint Peregrine had a conversion from the experience. He had a vision of Christ which resulted in the cancer in his foot being healed. Saint Peregrine is an incorruptible saint. St. Peregrine’s feast day is May 1st.
